Cable Lock Maclocks Compulocks T-bar Security Keyed Alike CL15KA — Black, keyed-alike cable security lock

Maclocks Compulocks T-bar Security keyed-alike cable lock CL15KA is a black security cable designed to protect laptops, tablets and other portable equipment from opportunistic theft. The keyed-alike configuration allows several locks to be opened with the same key, simplifying key management across offices, classrooms and retail displays. Constructed to be compatible with devices that accept a T-bar or Kensington-style anchor, this cable lock offers a straightforward physical deterrent while keeping device ports and screens accessible for everyday use.

Advantages

The keyed-alike system reduces the number of keys needed for multiple devices and simplifies inventory and access control. The cable and locking head are built to provide visible, tamper-resistant protection without permanently modifying devices. Its compact locking mechanism and flexible cable allow quick attachment and removal, while the black finish blends unobtrusively with most devices and environments.

Suitable for

• Office laptops and docking stations where centralised key access is required
• School and university computer labs and classroom devices
• Retail displays and demo units on shop floors
• Shared workspaces, libraries and meeting rooms with multiple similar devices

Key specifications

• Lock type: T-bar / anchor-style keyed lock compatible with common security slots
• Configuration: keyed-alike — one key opens multiple locks
• Finish: black
• Cable: steel security cable with protective coating for device surfaces
• Compatibility: suitable for laptops, tablets and other portable equipment with security slot

How to use

Insert the T-bar or anchor into the device security slot, rotate or seat the bar as required by the device design, then engage the lock and secure the cable to an immovable anchor point such as a heavy table leg or fixed fixture. Keep the matching key in a secure location and use it to unlock the mechanism when device access or removal is needed. Regularly inspect the cable and locking head for signs of wear or tampering and replace the lock if any damage is found.

Usage recommendations

For best results, pair the lock with a fixed anchor point that cannot be easily moved and position the cable so it does not interfere with device cooling or ports. Maintain an organised key management system when using keyed-alike locks across multiple devices to ensure quick access while minimising security risk.
